This is the third article I've seen that's a first. Really cool to see new people coming over. Welcome! Yours was registered about 8 months ago, you finally made it. If you edit this and add a tag #introduceyourself. Not sure if it's that or #introducemyself, just tag them both if you decide to edit this. It will help this get seen by more people.
It's a cool place to be. I'm glad you found the joint.
